2. Return & Refund Overview
At PahalGiri, our products are cosmetic, personal-use items. For hygiene and safety reasons, we follow a limited return policy. Returns and refunds are accepted only in cases of a wrong product delivered or a damaged / defective product received. No return or refund is available for any other reason.
3. What's Eligible / Not Eligible
Eligible for Return/Refund
You received the wrong product (different from what you ordered)
The product arrived damaged (broken bottle, leaking, tampered seal, etc.)
The product is defective at the time of delivery
Not Eligible for Return/Refund
Change of mind / "didn't like it"
Personal preference — fragrance, texture, or how the product feels
Product not suiting your individual skin type or personal reaction, where the product itself is not defective
Product opened, used, or partially consumed (beyond inspection)
Any reason not covered under Section 3 above
Because our products are for personal cosmetic use, this limited policy is standard practice for hygiene and safety reasons across the skin care industry. See also our Disclaimer regarding natural product variation and skin reactions.
4. Return Window
3 Days
Please report a wrong or damaged product within 3 days (72 hours) of delivery, so we can resolve it quickly. Requests raised after this window may not be accepted.
5. Mandatory Proof Requirements
To raise a return/refund request for a wrong or damaged product, please share clear photos or a short video of the issue — ideally at the time of unboxing, or as soon as possible after. This helps us verify and process your request quickly.
Proof must be:
The original, unedited photo or video file — taken directly on your device
Clearly showing the product, packaging, and the issue (damage / wrong item / shipping label)
Clear and unedited, genuinely showing the product and the issue
Sent to us within the 3-day return window
If we're unable to verify an issue from the photo/video shared, our team may reach out for a little more information before approving the request.
6. How to Request a Return
Contact us within 3 days of delivery via WhatsApp or Email (see Section 8).
Share your Order ID, along with the original photo/video proof of the wrong or damaged product.
Our team will review your request and proof, and confirm whether it is approved within 2–3 business days. See our Terms & Conditions for how quality complaints are handled.
If approved, we will arrange a replacement or refund as applicable. Do not discard the product or packaging until instructed.
7. Refund Method & Timeline
Approved refunds are processed to the original payment method (or, for COD orders, via bank transfer/UPI).
Refunds are typically initiated within 5–7 business days of approval; the amount may take a few additional days to reflect, depending on your bank or payment provider.
Where possible, we may offer a replacement of the correct/undamaged product instead of a refund, at your preference.
